cbrstar 's review for:

The Inheritance of Loss by Kiran Desai
1.0

I could barely finish this one. I read it for the book club I belong to, and it was unanimously disliked by the group. Before reading it, I thought it would be comparable to Khaled Hosseini's The Kite Runner, but it wasn't at all. I kept waiting for there to be an uplifting message, but it never happened. The book was extremely depressing. On a positive note, there were some beautifully written passages and I learned a little about India.
